What issue are you seeing?
Environment:
- OS: Windows
- Codex Desktop: 26.527.31326
- Microsoft Store/MSIX package observed: 26.527.3686.0
- Connector: Canva
Issue:
When connecting the Canva connector, the browser shows "Authorization Successful", but Codex does not complete the connector setup.
Immediately after OAuth success, Windows shows an Electron error:
"Error launching app"
"Unable to find Electron app at C:\Program ...\oauth_callback?code=..."
"Cannot find module 'C:\Program ...\oauth_callback?code=...'"
Expected:
Codex should receive the OAuth callback and mark the Canva connector accessible. Canva tools should be injected into Codex.
Actual:
The connector remains inaccessible:
- Canva connector remains isAccessible=false
- Canva appears as installable connector
- Canva search/create/edit tools are not injected into the Codex tool list
Notes:
It looks like the OAuth callback URL is being interpreted as part of the Electron app path instead of being passed as a callback/deep-link argument. The callback code is appended after C:\Program..., causing Electron to search for a non-existent app/module path.
I can reproduce after restarting Codex.
